This woven blanket honours that lineage through the Somerville family crest and the warm tones of the Irish National Tartan.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eThe Somerville Name\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eFrom the Norman de Sommerville — from a place name in Normandy — the Somerville family came to Ireland in the early modern period and established themselves in County Cork and County Meath. The name is celebrated in Irish literary history through Edith Œnone Somerville (1858–1949), co-author with her cousin Violet Martin of the celebrated Somerville and Ross stories, including The Real Charlotte and the beloved Irish R.M. series. These works, rooted in the landscape and society of west Cork, remain among the most vivid portraits of Anglo-Irish provincial life ever written. The Somerville family of Drishane House in Castletownshend, Cork, represent one of the most culturally distinguished branches of the Anglo-Irish tradition, their literary legacy a lasting contribution to Irish writing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWoven Craftsmanship\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eNot printed — woven.
